Daddy, it´s your 84th Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Baby!! I love you more than you´ll ever know! As I sit here writing this letter to you, my heart is tearing apart, because I never imagined loosing you so soon! I always thought you would live to be at least 100. You had such a vibrant spirit even when you didn´t feel well, you kept right on going....like nothing could stop you! The selfish side of me wishes you were here, but the sympathetic side, is happy that you are done with the troubles of this wicked world and I know GOD knows what´s best! There are days when I think about you constantly, I just began to cry, because the pain of you not being here with us, is unbearable! When I´m longing for you, It´s funny how sometimes I feel your presence and the smell of your cologne, those are the times I feel you are with me! Although I made sure I gave you your flowers while you were here on earth, I still want you to know, you were a wonderful father and the greatest grandfather my children could ever have!! I only wished the Good LORD left you here to experience the joy of your great grandchildren!! You talk about laughter, you would be rolling at your great granddaughter Chieko!! Daddy, she is soo smart, witty and quick on her feet!! Just like you, she is hilarious!! There is never a dull moment!:) Wow...Dad, I´m still in disbelief, but at the end of the day...I know you´re in a better place, continue resting in Heaven! I Love you with an everlasting Love...your Baby girl, Sharon

My heart still aches for your presence. You meant the world to me and I´m so thankful that the Good LORD allowed me to have an absolutely beautiful father and daughter relationship. You were such a wise, smart and intelligent man! I so, so miss the long talks and laughter we use to have!! You were one hilarious father. There was never a dull moment with you!! No matter how I was feeling, you could always make me smile or laugh....you always gave me great advice, you never held your tongue on anything whether it was good, bad or indifferent. You meant what you said!!:) You were the best father a daughter could have. Yes we´ve had our moments, but they were far and few and I wouldn´t change anything for nothing in this world, except for seeing you here with us!!:) Dad....You have another great granddaughter who is sooo beautiful and brilliant!! There is so much of you in her, it´s unbelievable!! The way she smiles, eat and frowns, it is all you!! I thank GOD for her, because every day I look a pond her beautiful face and smile, I see you...and it makes my heart glad!!

Daddy, today marks two years that you departed from this earth! To this day, I find it so hard to believe! There´s not a day that goes by, that I don´t think of you and all of the endless conversations we use to have...even up to the day the Good LORD called you home. I love you Daddy with an ever lasting love, and I will forever be greatful for your truth and wisdom. Although you are no longer physically here, your spirit and the memories will live on in us....until we meet again, rest in peace!! "Love you Poppy!"

Robert (Bob) today, August 19, 2020 is one year since you departed from this Earth. Which was shocking, heartbreaking and a great loss that our family suffered. I am missing your presence on this Earth so so much in many ways...the grieving process has not been easy. But, I know time will help this pain, to gradually pass. But, it has been hard coming to realize how painful it is to lose someone who was in my life for a long time and is an important connection to my past. I Love You. Missing you. Robert (Bob) was a loving brother whom I miss so so much. I miss his presence on this Earth! Also, his laughter, when I would tell him about various things I freak-out about, some of them he thought was hilarious and he would break-out in this unique laughter. Love you forever and missing you so so much. Betty Jones, sister (#3).

Robert, knowing that you are gone from this earth is so, so painful, but I do realize you are gone to rest for a little while and you have to live on within the hearts of each of us, indeed you will. Meanwhile, the news of your death has traveled from the small town of Edison, Georgia to the big A of Atlanta, Georgia. Elaine Foster (childhood neighbor and friend of the family) stated that everyone was stunned by the news and she sends her condolences to the entire Jones Family. She is sorry for the family loss, and her thoughts and prayers are with the Jones Family during this difficult time. I love you. Missing you. Sister (#3) Betty Jones.

I remember you as my second dad, popi, I am so sad that you have left us. I will miss all the surgical jokes(spare parts in the freezer). You and mom added me to your family as a daughter, I could come to you about anything issue. I am crushed that I cannot be there to kiss you goodbye. Well you and dad can catch up on your fishing.
Until we all meet again in heaven rest in heavenly peace dad. You will truly, truly be missed. I love you .

To Robert and the Family: I am deeply saddened by the loss our family suffered on August 19, 2019. Suddenly, Robert, God called you home. I have a broken heart! I will miss your jokes and our general conversations about family, and politics we shared. Also, I will miss you calling me every New Year's Day to wish me Happy New Year and reminding me to always give thanks to God (in prayer on my knees). Robert, your presence will be missed. Big Brother, I will cherish our childhood and all the memories we shared, forever. Robert, thanks for the last three words I heard at the end of our last conversation,I Love You. Those words mean so much to me during this difficult time. My deepest sympathies go out to the entire family. May God give us the peace and comfort we all seek. May Prayers ease our pain and loss. And may you, Robert, Rest In Peace. I Love You. To the entire family, I Love You All. Betty Jones, sister (#3), May God Bless Us All!
